Night of the Ghouls
The Dead of Night is Alive with the Dead!
Follow-up to Ed Wood's 'Plan 9 from Outer Space' about the walking dead, It opens in a cemetery. Criswell, the 'real' medium, rises from his coffin to tell us of 'monsters to be despised.' Dr. Acula (Kenne Duncan) is a phony medium aided by Valda Hansen, a bogus ghost, and big Tor Johnson, wearing rags and horrible scar makeup as Lobo. The doctor swindles people by pretending to contact dead relatives, but then accidentally succeeds in reviving a bunch of corpses that bury him alive! Sat unreleased for 23 years because Wood couldn't pay the lab bill! Followed by 'Sinister Urge' in 1961 (Wood's last film).
